Blue Moon Ball

Kaoru Kanade's Pov

"You look beautiful," my mother says as she turns me around in my chair.

Her hand just softly touches my cheek. I lean in to her touch because its comforting.

I stand and my white lace long-sleeved dress falls to the floor having a tail at the end. My heels are a sparkly white.

I look in the mirror and see a beautiful girl who is not me but someone else.

I turn to my mother and see that she is in her nice and simple red dress. Tonight is the Alpha King's Blue Moon Ball. He has it every year for his son to find his mate. I always have to go but never did I find my mate.

Probably, cause I just turned eighteen. Maybe this year he will be here. My father politely knocks on the door as he opens it. My parents are the deltas of our pack, Akai Sora Pack, they help train everyone and are the pack's best trackers, well my father is anyway.

I look at them and envy their love for each other. I am an only child due to my mothers birth defects. I wasn't suppose to make it but I did. I do have some birth defects though like asthma and panic attacks.

But not as frequently as I used to when I was younger. My dad tends to baby me because of this. It's not normal for a werewolf to have these kind of defects. Normal werewolves don't have any at all. Sadly I do but I have learned to embrace it because its who I am.

"You look beautiful, sweetheart," My father says snapping me out of my thoughts.

"Thank you dad," I say quietly.

We walk out of my room and head outside into the limo. We made it outside and I see my best friends in the whole world, Kazuna and Chiyo. Kazuna was the Beta's daughter and Chiyo was the Alpha's daughter.

They have always been there for me no matter what the others say about me. Always have been there and always will be, just as I will be for them. Chiyo has been really protective of Kazuna and I. Probably because of how close we are. Maybe it just runs in her blood.

We get in the limo and I sat in between the two of them. Kazuna is jumping excitingly and Chiyo is looking at her like she's crazy. Maybe she is. Kazuna is the hyper and happy one of our little group, a little preppy. Chiyo is the sarcastic and very blunt one, kinda a rebel. I am the little quiet nerdy person who would rather read a book and search the internet than go to parties and wild things like that.

Chiyo would always drag Kazuna and I along because she thinks that it is funny how awkward I am at parties. But I love her for it because she never lets me get hurt or put me in harms way. She does this because she says it makes me experience the party life. Her words not mine. But, Kazuna would occasionally get drunk and we would have to drag her out and take her home.

We finally arrived at the Alpha King's pack house. We got out nice and orderly and headed inside. Both of my parents are by my side and Chiyo and Kazuna are with their parents. We walked in and I almost gasp in amazement at how beautifully decorated this room is.

Gold streamers line the walls and there are tables everywhere with light golden cloths, the chairs have a squishy white seat, there are servants dressed in black and white.

Everyone is dressed up in suits and colorful dresses. We walked to our assigned table and take a seat. I couldn't sit with Chiyo and Kazuna because they seated us by our ranks. They looked at me and waved. I waved back and turned around when my mother taps my shoulder.

"Are you enjoying it?" My mother asks.

"It's amazing! The decorating is very precise and beautiful," I reply.

Everyone turns around when the Alpha King and Luna came down the spiral staircase. We all bowed down as they walk in. Next comes the Alpha King's daughter Hana and son Tatsuya. I heard that Tatsuya is very scary and cruel to all his enemies. There used to be another royal child but no one knows what happened to her.

They walked down and took a seat on their thrones. They all match with a gold, black and white theme. We bowed respectfully as a greeting to them. The Alpha King holds up his hand. We went silent immediately.

"I would like to thank you all for attending this years Blue Moon Ball. I am very ...." he says but I tune out wondering about Colton. His name brings chills to my spine.

"Thank you, now let's start with some dancing," he says at the end.

My father leans over and whispers in my ear.

"Hey kiddo, next time you want to tune out make it not look so obvious."

I blushed and hid my face in my hands. I glance at him to see that he is grinning because he caught me. Momma looks at us and smiles.

"Honey, why don't you go and dance with Chiyo and Kazuna," My mother says.

I nodded and stood up. I instantly spot Chiyo and Kazuna. I walked over to them and we chat quietly.

"Tatsuya looked delicious tonight. I wonder who his mate is? Lucky girl!" Kazuna says.

"Not really because I heard he sleeps around with almost every girl in his pack," Chiyo said as she crossed her arms.

"Maybe he would change for his mate. You never know who it could be," I say.

Little did I know.

"Possible," Rose says.

"That would be so cute!" Kazuna replies.

We all laughed at Kazuna. When three boys come and ask us to dance. We separated and each boys takes us away to dance.

I got the boy who had curly brown hair. He had vibrant green eyes, strong build and very tall at least 6'4.

He was very good looking. Very important too because he had power radiating of him.

"The name is Mitsuo. What might yours be miss?" He asks.

"Kaoru." I reply.

We waltzed silently. Very awkward actually.

"Not much if a talker are you?"

Yes I am.

"Only if I am uncomfortable." I say.

"So I make you uncomfortable?" He says.

"Kinda but I never really go to parties and dance."

"Lies," My wolf Kara says.

"Shut up," I tell her.

"Truth hurts and you are so mean!" She says.

"Bye Kara," I say already done dealing with her.

"See yah!" She chirps.

"Talking to your wolf, huh? I noticed your eyes changed colors," Mitsuo says.

"Oh sorry, she just kinda said something to me."

"Nah, its fine," he says.

We head back inside after our dance.

I told Mitsuo I had to go and I walked to the bathroom. On the way there I bump onto a wall or a very muscled chest.

I looked up and see Tatsuya. He looks at me and his eyes turned a golden color. He growls and pulls me closer. I feel sparks erupting all over my skin where he touches.

"Mate," Kara says.

Oh no!

He growls loudly catching everyones attention and says,

"MINE!"

I looked into his intense golden eyes and almost fainted from the contact. I stared at him and he stares back.

"My mate," he said quietly only for me to hear.

I stand there in shock and just gaped at him. I can't be his mate. I can't be an Alpha Queen. I can't do it! I was shaking and panic seemed to rush through me. I look up to see his eyes full of concern.

"What's wrong? Are you okay?" he said worriedly.

I start to see black spots dotting my vision.

"She's having a panic attack!" I heard my mother say before I blacked out.
